    Hi Folks,

    Here are a selection of images of 1/9th scale busts I have been working on over recent weeks. These are to be cast real bronze. I know it may not fit exactly into the hobby, but I thought you may like to see them.

    Please excuse the badly taken Pictures.

    I hope you like them!

    Carl

    G'day Carl,

    The pics of these beautiful busts certainly belong on this forum, but more importantly, the busts themselves should be cast in resin and recruited into my Grey Army.

    I know scores of Planeteers who would love to have these busts in their Grey Army!! They are simply stunning mate. Well done.

    Carl these are stunning figures.
    The only thing i don't like is that they are in bronze. They should be available in Resin.
    Please copy them..

    Outstanding sculpts, one and all. Actually some of the very best scale busts I have seen, regardless of era depicted.

    Any thoughts about offering castings for sale, perhaps in resin?

    Yeah it would be a crime not to cast these in resin. You need to get them done. I know hundreds of people would line up to get their hands on one of these - I know I would!

    Please consider Resin.

    Thanks.

    Carl, I think you should consider putting them into resin also. All of them are nice, with the first and last one being exceptional IMO. ~Gary

    If you cast these in resin I'll shell very good (and hard earned) money for each and every one of them

    Hey Carl,

    The tribe has spoken.

    Resin, resin resin.

    I'll happily pay for one of each of these.

    I would seriously consider the pilot and stretcher bearer. Wonderful looking busts, all of them!
